On
My Wishlist is a weekly meme that allows us to share the books we
haven't bought yet but are waiting to be bought and devoured. If you are
anything like me then your wishlist is getting longer by the day! If
you would like to take part and have your own 'On My Wishlist' post then
you can find more info here. (This post was inspired by the fab In My Mailbox by Kristi at The Story Siren)

My
On My Wishlist includes books that are older and already out and ones
that are brand new or not even out yet! So lets get to it. Today I
bring you 4 books that I am dying to get my hands on! I will be
updating these when I get any of these books...

Seventeen-year-old Amy
joins her parents as frozen cargo aboard the vast spaceship Godspeed and
expects to awaken on a new planet, three hundred years in the future.
Never could she have known that her frozen slumber would come to an end
fifty years too soon and that she would be thrust into the brave new
world of a spaceship that lives by its own rules.

Amy quickly
realizes that her awakening was no mere computer malfunction. Someone -
one of the few thousand inhabitants of the spaceship - tried to kill
her. And if Amy doesn't do something soon, her parents will be next.

Now, Amy must race to unlock Godspeed's hidden secrets. But out of her
list of murder suspects, there's only one who matters: Elder, the future
leader of the ship and the love she could never have seen coming.

The Picture of Dorian Gray meets Pride and Prejudice, with a dash of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.

New
York City, 1882. Seventeen-year-old Natalie Stewart's latest obsession
is a painting of the handsome British Lord Denbury. Something in his
striking blue eyes calls to her. As his incredibly life-like gaze seems
to follow her, Natalie gets the uneasy feeling that details of the
painting keep changing...

Jonathan Denbury's soul is trapped in
the gilded painting by dark magic while his possessed body commits
unspeakable crimes in the city slums. He must lure Natalie into the
painting, for only together can they reverse the curse and free his
damaged soul.

Haven Terra is a brainy,
shy high school outcast. But everything begins to change when she turns
sixteen. Along with her best friend Dante and their quiet and brilliant
classmate Lance, she is awarded a prestigious internship in the big
city— Chicago—and is sent to live and work at a swanky and stylish hotel
under the watchful eyes of a group of gorgeous and shockingly
young-looking strangers: powerful and alluring hotel owner Aurelia
Brown; her second-in-command, the dashing Lucian Grove; and their
stunning but aloof staff of glamazons called The Outfit.

As Haven
begins falling for Lucian, she discovers that these beautiful people
are not quite what they seem. With the help of a mysterious book, she
uncovers a network of secret passageways from the hotel’s jazz-age past
that leads her to the heart of the evil agenda of Aurelia and company:
they’re in the business of buying souls. Will they succeed in
wooing Haven to join them in their recruitment efforts, or will she be
able to thwart this devilish set’s plans to take the souls of her
classmates on prom night at the hotel?

Illuminate is an
exciting saga of a teen’s first taste of independence, her experience in
the lap of luxury, and her discovery she may possess strength greater
than she ever knew.

In the city of
Lovecraft, the Proctors rule and a great Engine turns below the streets,
grinding any resistance to their order to dust. The necrovirus is
blamed for Lovecraft's epidemic of madness, for the strange and eldritch
creatures that roam the streets after dark, and for everything that the
city leaders deem Heretical—born of the belief in magic and witchcraft.
And for Aoife Grayson, her time is growing shorter by the day.

Aoife Grayson's family is unique, in the worst way—every one of
them, including her mother and her elder brother Conrad, has gone mad on
their 16th birthday. And now, a ward of the state, and one of the only
female students at the School of Engines, she is trying to pretend that
her fate can be different.

Alright, so there is 4 more books I'm dying to read! So whats on your wishlist??
